14-Day Gluten-Free Meal Plan: 1,200 Calories

By: Victoria Seaver, M.S., R.D., C.D., Digital Meal Plan Editor

We've done the hard work of planning for you and mapped out 14 full days of meals and
snacks that are free of gluten and gluten-containing ingredients and are balanced for a
healthy diet.

Following a gluten-free diet is easy and


delicious with this 14-day, 1,200-calorie
meal plan. We've done the hard work of
planning for you and mapped out 14 full
days of meals and snacks that are free
of gluten and gluten-containing
ingredients and are balanced for a
healthy diet. Because gluten-free diets
can be lacking in certain nutrients like
fiber, niacin, folate and vitamin B12, we
made sure to include plenty of healthy
foods to help you meet your daily
nutrient needs. To be safe, always
double check the labels of packaged
foods and watch out for hidden sources
of gluten, especially if you have celiac disease (an allergy to gluten).
Not sure if this is the plan for you? We offer a variety of meal plans for different health conditions,
needs and diets. Find the meal plan that works best for you.
Shopping Tip: When buying a gluten-free bread, choose an option that is around 70 calories per
slice. People with celiac disease or gluten-sensitivity should use oats that are labeled “gluten-free,”
as oats are often cross-contaminated with wheat and barley.
